I used this item on my trip to london. -10 C°. I was absolutely blown away at the warmth. People around me in line were complaining about there hands freezing while wearing quite large gloves. These gloves are light thin and I built a snowman with them on and stayed completely dry. They also dry very quickly even in freezing temperatures. I normally don't comment on things I buy but you need to buy these gloves if your hands need to be warm and dry.

The gloves are waterproof, from what I can tell. Windproof -- not sure, your hands will get cold in them if they are exposed to cold wind. I used these on the first day of a Presidential traverse this month (Jan.). It was single digits, and the gloves were warm to begin with but the fingers are too tight and limited circulation to my hands. I had to put them away. Not a good glove for extreme cold weather, but still a good general purpose glove.

These things are great. When I first saw the picture - I thought no way those are waterproof/breathable/windproof. But I bought them and first thing I did was put them on and turn on the sink. Then I stuck my hand in a bucket of water. These things really are waterproof. Not as breathable as I hoped they were, but good enough. I plan on using these for winter hiking and climbing when its not cold enough for mitt or over glove. I'm also going to use them when on drill status for the army and I'm out in the field.

side note on the sizing. It felt a little too large - but just on the thumb. There was like 1/8 inch too much material while my other fingers were tight. I tried on a medium, but it felt way too constrictive, so I just went with the large.

These do seem to be mostly waterproof for short spurts, but the "breathable" feature ends up letting dampness in if you're outside in wet weather for a long time. Also, these are lightweight gloves not good for weather below the low 40s or so. The inside liner detached on my pair, so when they get damp the liner sticks to my hand and comes out when I try to take the glove off. They don't live up to the title of "Xtreme all weather gloves", but they would be good for cool weather outdoor activities when it's damp but not a heavy rain.

Excellent gloves for more casual use i.e. jogging, walking, skiing, etc - they don't seem QUITE as warm as 200g fleece as they claim, but they are still quite warm. Below 20F, they seem to be not quite as warm, so I paired them up with some smartwool liners and they are perfect! There are some complaints that the gloves aren't really waterproof, but I've ridden on my bike through the rain with these and they have kept me completely dry. Wonderful gloves and a great value!

The fit is a bit tight for me around the fingers, even though I don't think I have large fingers. This restricts circulation a bit so my fingers get cold when I first start out on my (snowshoe) walk. They do warm up after I get going, and are warmer than a thinner pair of EMS fleece gloves I was wearing before, as well as being waterproof/breathable, a huge plus. (The fingers on my large gloves are already a bit long. A larger size would make this worse, I think.) While the gloves promise more than they deliver for me (waterproof, breathable, thin, and warm), they are still pretty nice. Maybe the tightness will go away as they get broke in.

The second time I wore these the liner came out with my hands. VERY frustrating. The "Extreme" claim is not true. If you however do want a warm pair of gloves to shovel they will keep you warm. I took them to the Conway NH store and was told there is nothing they could do, however I will take them to the Portsmouth store where I have never had an issue to try again before I give up.
